This is a good release, if you still collect audience taped shows. For this kind of recording it sounds quite good and the presentation (booklet, etc.) is very well done. The show itself is quite good, too. Elvis doesn't talk too much, but he still seems to care for the audience. The songs are sung well and you can clearly hear what a great singer this man was.

I wouldn't give it a '9', but it is an impressive audience recording which will get a solid 7.5 for the sound. Well done Straight Arrow!

Good show and good sound quality.
